Lone worker applications are software solutions designed to enhance the safety and security of individuals who work alone or in isolated environments. These applications typically run on smartphones, wearables, or dedicated devices and provide features like emergency alerts, GPS tracking, check-in systems, and communication capabilities.

Lone worker applications employ various safety measures to protect individuals. They enable workers to check in at regular intervals to indicate their well-being. In case of an emergency or missed check-in, the application can automatically notify predefined contacts or a central monitoring system for immediate assistance. Some applications also incorporate panic buttons that allow workers to quickly send distress signals.

When selecting a lone worker application, consider features such as real-time location tracking, two-way communication capabilities, automatic incident reporting, integration with existing safety protocols, customizable alert settings.

While lone worker applications are commonly used in industries such as healthcare, construction, security services, transportation, and utilities where employees often work alone or remotely, they can be beneficial in any scenario where individuals may face occupational risks due to isolation. These apps can be tailored to meet the unique needs of different sectors.

Legal requirements regarding the use of lone worker applications may vary depending on the jurisdiction and industry-specific regulations. In Australia for example, employers need to meet their obligations under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 and the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004. Specifically, it enables employers to implement control measures for hazards, establish effective communication channels, conduct regular monitoring as needed, implement emergency procedures, and automate incident reporting.

Employees can be set up for visibility to a company control room in the case of security guards, bus drivers etc. Employees can also be set up to be incognito until a check-in or emergency situation occurs. Any personally identifiable information is securely stored in the IMPULSE Wireless application.
